Setting up Table of Contents Notifications

To complete your work for this week, identify at least three family therapy journals, and then request what are called “content alerts.” Content alerts are essentially emails from a journal’s publisher that include a list of the articles published in the current issue of that journal. Having these alerts will help you to stay up-to-date with clinically relevant research. In order to request these alerts, go to the publisher’s website for a particular journal. On the journals website, you will see information about the journal, including the editor and the various issues published to date. You will also see a place that says “get new content alerts” or “sign-up for email alerts.” Many of the publishers will ask that you create an account with them to request the alert. Simply follow the instructions to do this and then use that account to request the email alerts.
Important: Please note that you should not be required to pay for any email alert. If you see an article that you are interested in reading within the email alert, search for that article using the NCU library. You can use the library to gain access to the full content of these journals.
Once you have registered for at least three content alerts, submit a list of the journals you requested alerts from. For each journal, list the name of the journal, the current editor of the journal and copy-paste a description of the journal’s focus.
